Latest Podcast Episodes

WARNING: While this episode of Verity! has no swearing, we do refer to some rather grown-up concepts, so if you usually listen with your children, you might want to take a swing through this Extra before you bring the kiddies on board--either that or fast-forward through Lynne's answer to this question.

For this Extra!, we turn to yet another silly what-if-type question. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, Liz, and Lynne as we plan how we'd each take over the world/galaxy/universe. Which Doctor Who villains would we recruit as henchmen? What kind of evil master-plans would we employ? Would any of us stand a chance of successful conquest?

How would you go about taking over? Let us know in the comments!

What you are about to hear is the story of a connection, a connection that was made between a television series and a viewer's life.

The You and Who books are the story of that connection, as told by the people who watch the programmes that make us come alive. Chiefly, of course, Doctor Who.

This podcast will relate some of the stories from those books... and beyond.

In this episode:

Me and Who: A tale of the Radio Times Special, cassettes and Paris by Miles Northcott
Douglas finds the target: The Kamikaze sketch from The Burkiss Way by Stephen Hatcher

With an intermission featuring Rob Irwin talking to JR Southall.

The You and Who books, from which all royalties are paid to charity, are available in print and for Kindle, from watchingbooks.weebly.com

“Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

Let PC McGarry wear black cotton gloves.”

The Whoseum is in deepest mourning this week for the loss of that titan of our childhood, Brian Cant. Nevertheless, Series 10 continue apace and reviews of “Empress of Mars” and “The Eaters of Light” are called for.

Along the way, Allan relates the history of Half Man Half Biscuit, Doc reveals the shocking truth behind his academic record, Mark recalls a curious meeting in a Kentish pub, and we reveal the truth about “Zulu”.

Saddle up everyone because the Arrow of Time team is taking on the latest of Who with “The Eaters of Light.” And they’ll also talk about eating light, and how much of a drag it is. Also they discuss a FAN-tastic fan theory sent in by one of OUR fans, the FANbulous Conrad Fannington! No that’s not his actual last name, but it would be amazing if it was!

Adam, Debbie, Mary and Kirby chat about another seventh Doctor story by Andrew Cartmel's favourite writer, Ben Aaronovitch.

We also have feedback, news, eBay and You Won't Get This One.

"This fellow's bright green apparently. And dead."

What's that you say? Green? And, more importantly, dead? This must be the 1973 Jon Pertwee quorn-clogged classic, The Green Death, then.

Wherein the Doctor escapes from Metebelis III and seeks comfort in some cosplay while Jo finds love, the Brig finds a dinner suit at the bottom of his overnight bag and Mike Yates finds the true inner peace that only BOSS's brainwashing can bring.

The miners display the survival instincts of lemmings, Dai and Fell fulfill their nominal destinies and Stevens reveals the new staff perk for Global Chemicals employees – a fully equipped S&M dungeon.

Throw in some horrific maggots and some horrifically bad special effects and you have something of a great big melting pot – of "delicious" fungus soup.

So is this a case of "there's lovely"? Listen in and find out.

This is Bags of Action. The podcast devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them are awesome! In this episode Steve and Pete are joined by a special guest, Andy Schmidt, to discuss a classic film of his choosing, Highlander from 1986. It's been a long time since they've all seen the film, so does it hold up today? Is there anything they'd change about it, and what's the difference between the US and the European versions?

A New Doctor, a new Show Runner. The Moffat and Matt Smith eras begin. A crack in the wall has a little girl very scared, so scared that a Mad Man in a box doesn't rattle her at all.

In the 17th episode of the podcast that 200 people every month are already calling "One of thirty Doctor Who podcasts I subscribe to," Tim and Pete will obey the Master for the first time as they watch 1971's Terror of the Autons and find nothing to worry about. Nothing to worry about... Warning: Contains inconsistent pronunciation of the word 'Master'.

"The Eaters of Light" Review

Death by Scotland! It's certainly a hostile place for our Tardis Team this week but what's with the music? Romans, Barbarians, scary monsters and crows. Some good ingredients but is it enough for a solid story or do we feel like it's a bit... cold?

Thank you for listening and sending us your reviews. Next week it's World Enough and Time which sounds intriguing so get your reviews in for that. Until then have a great week and remember - Allons-y!
